Mortgage and Remortgage Fees
Our fees made clear
Our pricing depends on the type of the property and the complexity of the matter, i.e. if the property is freehold or leasehold and what your lender’s instructions are.
Our fees for a typical remortgage range from £595 (inc. VAT) to £795 (inc. VAT).
This is why it is important that we give you an individual cost estimate at the start of the transaction, taking into account the important features of your remortgage. We will always advise you immediately about any complications and discuss the potential impact on prices before we incur any additional charges.
Our fees cover all of the work required to complete your remortgage including dealing with registration of your lender’s mortgage with the Land Registry.
Disbursements
Disbursements are fees we are required to pay out on your behalf to third parties and include the following:-
- Search fee – approximately £228 depending on the local authority. Your lender may accept search insurance which is cheaper but we would not be able to advise you of this until receipt of the mortgage offer
- H M Land Registry fee – This is set by the Land Registry according to the amount of borrowing (see Land Registry fee scale on their website)
- Electronic money transfer fee – £35
- VAT – we will add VAT to our charges at the rate which applies when the work is done. Currently 20%
How long will my remortgage take?
This is dependent on a number of factors but the average process takes between 4-6 weeks for a straightforward transaction. If your lender’s instructions are not straightforward or we come across a defect in your title, it could take significantly longer.
Stages of the process:
- Take your instructions and give any initial advice required
- Check finances are in place
- Carry out searches
- Check title
- Obtain further planning documentation if required
- Advise on the conditions of your mortgage offer
- Obtain your signature to the mortgage deed
- Arrange a completion date
- Obtain pre-completion searches
- Request final repayment figure from your existing lender
- Request mortgage advance from your new lender
- Complete remortgage
- Register your new mortgage with the Land Registry

We recently used Rothera Bray for the sale of our property and the purchase of our new home, and Laura provided excellent service throughout. Moving house can be stressful, particularly when dealing with a chain and unexpected issues, but Laura was consistently professional, responsive and reassuring. She kept us informed, explained everything clearly and helped ensure the process ran smoothly. Her attention to detail, clear communication and willingness to answer our questions made a real difference. Thank you, Laura, for all your hard work. We would happily recommend Rothera Bray to anyone seeking a reliable and professional conveyancing service.

I recently sold my house using Ellie at Rothera Bray and couldn’t be happier with the service I received. From start to finish Ellie kept me fully informed, explained everything clearly and was always quick to update me on the progress. What really stood out was how proactive and reassuring she was throughout the process, especially when delays occurred further down the chain. Ellie made sure I understood what was happening at every stage which took away a lot of the usual stress involved in moving house. Her professionalism, communication, and attention to detail was excellent and I always felt relaxed and confident that everything was being handled properly. I would highly recommend Ellie to anyone buying or selling a property.

I had an outstanding experience with Ellie Robinson. She went out of her way at every stage and kept me updated continuously, even when there was no new information to share. Every part of the process was completed as quickly as possible and nothing was ever too much trouble. Ellie kept the other parties moving, provided clear and thorough legal advice, and presented all documentation in a way that was easy to understand. I could not recommend her highly enough.

Selling houses is always a daunting prospect, but my life was made much easier by the professionalism and efficiency of Laura Runcak and Lisa Rainbow. They communicated promptly at every step of the process, and I would definitely recommend their services. In fact, I will be using them again in the near future, as I have another house to sell. Both ladies are a credit to Rothera Bray. Many thanks from me and my Mum.
